Denmark's parliament has raised the retirement age to 70 by 2040, making it the highest in Europe. The age will increase gradually from 67 to 68 in 2030 and 69 in 2035. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has expressed concerns about automatic increases. Protests against the change have occurred, with trade union leaders calling it unfair, especially for blue-collar workers. Other European countries have also adjusted retirement ages in response to life expectancy. Teljes cikk (bbc.com europe)
